Plant biotech is a set of techniques used to adapt plants for certain needs. With glow-in-the-dark trees, bushes, and grass, neighborhoods and urban spaces could be illuminated without the need for electricity, while also reducing light pollution. BioGlow, a small biotech firm in St. Louis, has experimented

Biotech metropolis: the whiz-bang symbiosis of tech and nature

By 2050, we will see a new place called the “BioTech Metropolis,” a city that looks like the genius lovechild of Mother Nature and techy geeks. Ever seen a termite mound? Those little bugs have some slick tricks up their sleeves to keep their homes cool. Now, imagine skyscrapers in BioTech

Bosphorus will be free of plastic bags, bottles and other debris

Let's zoom into 2030: humans and robots have become an unbeatable cleanup team, making oceans sparkle again by wiping out a huge garbage patch in the Atlantic Ocean. Imagine the city of Istanbul, where the mighty Bosphorus that slices through the city is no longer choked with plastic bags, bottles,

By the year 2050, lab-grown meat will have become cheaper than harvested meat due to popular demand, and the livestock population will have significantly reduced. While chickens and cattle will still be used for eggs and milk respectively, only a small minority will be killed for meat, and pigs will

Meta office: a place of digital equality

In 2050, bionic prostheses and implants are a common thing. People not only resort to augmentation due to life circumstances, but also deliberately improve their bodies — vision, hearing, cognitive abilities, etc. The progress in bionics has also influenced the appearance of the workplace,

The VR revolution comes to neural interfaces

VR technology has come a long way. Until the early 2020s, users had to slap on bulky helmets and squeeze into sensor suits. But progress never stands still. The helmets were replaced first by glasses, then lenses. Suits became electrode meshes. Now, in 2050, the industry is undergoing another revolution.

Human body tech: from prostheses to immortality

As areas of technological progress go, human body modification is one of the most exciting — yet one of the most unpredictable in terms of potential impact. The benefits are undeniable. Losing a limb will no longer be a stigma — far from it. Mass production of artificial organs, from hearts

The world around us is merely a set of brain stimulations. Some help us to see, others to enjoy, still others to monitor and control the organism, and so on. But very soon, companies developing neural interfaces (such as Neuralink) will be able to safely feed stimulations from a computer to the brain,
